Another beautiful song. Nostalgia, fragility, and the passing of time. There's emotion flowing, Bob.

Hi Bob.
I really enjoyed my listen and the slide-show you created in mind as I listened.
For me, this was a very peaceful and wistful journey into the past.
Recalling fond memories is always a pleasure and you captured that feeling very well.
The 2-chord accompaniment was perfect and added to the effect of being carried away on the wings of reverie.

Fascinating character study. You bring her to life with succinct lyrics. I like the aural effect created by the left and right guitars. The BGVs are the right touch to your vocal narration. Good song!

Another lovely poetic song with a bare simple arrangement and a soulful vocal performance. "Said the future was a thief/And the present would never last" and many other imaginative lines. Joliz's voice is an atmospheric instrument. I can picture this being played in a full crowded bar, the audience listening quietly and attentively to the big world star.

Wow! Tremendous write, vocals and mix. Janice started smiling with the first hums from Joliz. And that smile remained through four straight listens. These lines are delightful: “She only walked at night Cause she said it had soul” and “I asked where was she going She said maybe somewhere” Your 000-18 (Janice loves hers ) and your shaker sound great Great BiaB session folks also. Hypnotizingly good from both of you! Man, can you ever tell a story full of rich imagery. We enjoyed it very much, J&B PS Thanks for including the tech info.
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos

Excellent tune Bob. I had the occasion to own a Little Red Opel GT. Was a very cool car. Excellent lyric vocal and backtrack. Joliz backing vocals were perfect for the song. Well done...
